Detect if compiler is Delphi 11.1 (and not 11.0) ?
Uwe Raabe replied to A.M. Hoornweg's topic in Delphi IDE and APIs
No, in System.pas. That's why you cant' use IFDEF here. -

Does it help when you add the complete path to the file instead only the file name?

Developing under Windows 11 in a VM not feasible ?

That must indeed be a scenario being totally ignored when designing the HighDPI designer. If they only had asked us before...- 26 replies

At least they can add four items to the bugs fixed list while actually only fixing one -

Seems it is already reported: https://quality.embarcadero.com/browse/RSP-37378 -

Can you find something suspicious in the GetItInstall.log located in $(BDSCOMMONDIR) ? -

At least I can find it in my installation. So it is not missing files in delivery. -
IIRC, keeping the registry settings is something the uninstaller does (or does not).

It would be helpful if we could identify the reason why it doesn't work for some of us.

It happens sporadically by itself, but as not everyone knows how to clear the internal icon cache, I suggest a restart.

Tool to fix up uses clause unit namespaces?
Uwe Raabe replied to Vincent Parrett's topic in General Help
Meanwhile the project is on GitHub: https://github.com/UweRaabe/UsesCleaner You don't even need to change the sources to handle FMX. The -c command line parameter lets you specify a configuration file with your preferred settings. An example can be found on GitHub. -
I did the same and all registry entries persisted. Even the Win64 library ones.
-
Did you let the new setup uninstall or did you do it on your own? What did you select when you were asked to remove the registry entries or to keep them?

Probably just a gut feeling. After all they wasted one of the four main menu entries for that. Thinking about it, the registered products page already has information about my license keys and subscription status. As the responsible developer I would look up the latest valid subscription exactly there. As the network licenses have their own place where I even can simply upload the license, that seems the place to get the subscription information as well. -

Not sure if that actually matters, but did you upload your Network Named License to https://my.embarcadero.com/#networkLicense ? -
Not when you go with the default setup settings that keep your registry intact. BTW, you can as well use the migration tool to save the registry settings and restore them later - just to be on the safe side.

That is indeed inconsistent. Although you can select a wallpaper for a custom theme, the IDE doesn't support selecting a custom theme - add least not officially. -

You can configure a different wallpaper per theme, so when switching the theme the wallpaper changes, too. That said, to get rid of the default wallpaper, go to Tools -> Options -> Welcome Page, select your current theme and click Delete. Don't forget to Save. -
Does anyone know if Nils Haeck is OK ? SimLib and NativeXml
Uwe Raabe replied to Blavatsky's topic in VCL
I make heavy use of NativeXML in Project Magician. It is a small footprint, easy to use, one unit implementation and (to be honest) I am just used to it. -
I use them to distinguish all the Delphi icons in the taskbar. For that I Shift-Right-Click on the icon and select Eigenschaften (Settings?), switch to Verknüpfungen (Links?) and change the icon with Anderes Symbol (Change Icon?). This only affects the taskbar icon. For desktop icons there is always the caption, while taskbar icons only reveal the inner soul when hovering over it. Sorry for the German captions and the possibly wrong translations. I just have no English Windows at hand to check.

Nice! Although you will have a hard time to install Delphi 11 and Delphi 11.1 on the same machine.

Systemic failing of Embarcadero development and support or am I just paranoid ?
Uwe Raabe replied to CyberPeter's topic in General Help
I also got the impression that quantity of content is preferred over quality of content. This may be based on the way social media works these days. I mean, how would they be able to even detect quality with their algorithms? Beware the day when MVP turns into an abbreviation for Marketing Voluntary Populist
